We describe the reactivity of new copper AlkylPY2 type complexes which react with dioxygen and thus hydroxylate an aliphatic C–H bond of the ligand in the same manner as copper‐containing monooxygenases.
New Pt(eta2-acetato){[(R)(Ph)PO]2H} complexes 3 prepared from PtCl2(CH3CN)2 and secondary phosphine oxides (SPOs) catalyzed the [2+1] cycloaddition of phenylethyne (5a) with norbornene derivatives 4 to afford benzylidenecyclopropanes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
